Transverse Wave on Flexible String! Please help.
1. The diagram represents a snapshot of a standing transverse wave on a flexible string taken when the displacement is at a maximum. The string is 0.65 m long with tension 11.00 N. The total mass of the string is 8.11 g. Find the period of the oscillation.
2. converted mass to kg so .00811 kg Tension = 11N and L=0.65 m
3. i computed λ=2L/4 = 2(.65)/4 = .325 m
my v=f*λ which is the part i am currently stuck on because i cannot seem to figure out how to determine the fundamental frequency of a string without knowing the velocity first...
